I just went to make my girlfriend a burrito and caught the tail end of a new story on the radio. Whoever they were interviewing has just stated that “The violence on the James Smith Cree Nation and in Weldon SK is due to colonialism and the aftermath of the residential school system.” So at least that mystery is solved. One less X-File.
I got an alert that Truedope was going to make a speech about this.

This is pretty terrible. I'm hearing a rumour that the dead person isn't actually the second brother and that it might have been a case of mistaken identity, but as with all these kinds of fluid situations it's impossible to really know what's going on at the moment.
Blackmore said his identity has been confirmed, and he was found with visible injuries that were not believed to be self-inflicted. The cause of his death is still under investigation, Blackmore said.

The other Sanderson is described as being 6-foot-1 and 200 (or 240 pounds) pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

Parole documents reveal details of Saskatchewan suspect’s criminal past​

Myles Brandon Sanderson’s criminal history is both long and violent, beginning in his youth and spanning almost 20 years, with convictions for domestic violence, armed robbery, and numerous other violent attacks, including a double stabbing committed with a fork.
With a fork no less.

SO he was in jail for a brutal assault but released on statutory parole.

I see our catch-and-release program is doing it's usual bang up job,

Wow….According to the Parole Board of Canada documents, Mr. Sanderson has a total of 59 criminal convictions as an adult, including multiple convictions for aggravated assault, assault with a weapon, assault causing bodily harm, simple assault, assaulting a police officer, threatening, mischief, resisting arrest and obstruction, as well as drug and alcohol offences.

The documents say Mr. Sanderson and his siblings grew up in an environment of physical and domestic abuse and instability, and moved between the homes of his parents and other relatives, exposed to substance abuse, neglect and violence. Mr. Sanderson started drinking and smoking marijuana at age 12, using cocaine at 14, and crystal meth in his late 20s, and has a history of associating with “gang members, drug dealers, pimps and people involved in the party scene,” the documents say.

He has five children with his long-term partner, who has been the victim of domestic violence perpetrated by him. The parole documents say a Spousal Assault Risk Assessment assessed Mr. Sanderson at high risk for spousal violence. Other assessments put him in the medium-high risk of violent reoffence.

Yep…..There’s a perfect candidate for the catch and release program. What could go wrong?

So…assuming this dude is caught, & assuming he gets 25yrs for the first murder…& 25yrs concurrent for the second murder….& the 3rd and 4th & 7th & 11th, and all the other charges of lesser time but all served concurrent with the other charges above (all this on top of his previous 59 Adult charges & a sealed Juvenile record)….

….then potential of statutory release at 2/3rds time…& he’s currently 31yrs old, meaning this guy could be out into the community (just like how he’s currently out on statutory release) when he’s 48yrs old.

How many people on this Forum are younger than 48 years old right now? Some of you must be I’m assuming? Anyone?

And some wonder why people have lost faith in our "justice" system.

The vast majority of the violence being done these days is by people with a violent criminal record, or so i've read. Which means we could slash violent crime if we dealt with these people correctly the first time,

The 25 years for first degree murder is the minimum. He would not be eligible for parole for 25 years. Not sooner. But yes, its all concurent as otherwise it would violate his rights.

The first time? Or the 58th time….would still have prevented (or at least delayed) this one….

A fugitive wanted in a deadly stabbing rampage in Saskatchewan has a nearly two-decade long criminal record (which is impressive for somebody who is 31 years old) and a propensity for violence when intoxicated, a parole board document says.

The Parole Board of Canada document from February says Myles Sanderson told the board that regular use of drugs and hard alcohol would make him “lose (his) mind” and get angry.

“Your criminal history is very concerning, including the use of violence and weapons related to your index offences, and your history of domestic violence,” said the document obtained by The Canadian Press.

Sanderson received statutory release from prison in August 2021, but it was revoked about four months later because the board said he failed to communicate with his parole supervisor.

In the document, the board said it decided to reinstate his statutory release with a reprimand.

“It is the Board’s opinion that you will not present an undue risk to society if released on statutory release and that your release will contribute to the protection of society by facilitating your reintegration into society as a law-abiding citizen.”

Phew!! Thank God the thought of contributing to the protection of society was at the forefront of the decision making process of the Parole Board of Canada or something horrible might have happened.


(Sanderson was serving his first federal sentence of more than four years, four months and 19 days for a slew of offences including assault, assault with a weapon, assaulting a peace officer and robbery. In total, the document says, he has 59 criminal convictions

Police continue to scour Saskatchewan for mass stabbings suspect Myles Sanderson, who was granted statutory release from prison in 2021. Now the Parole Board of Canada says it intends to review the decisions that led to his release.

Sigh. Maybe we should just lock up the parole board before they 'review' any more people for release.
